" Kume had a fantastic vibe, and I was excited to try their sushi after reading great reviews. I ordered a spicy tuna roll and hibachi steak. While the sushi was good, I found it somewhat lacking in authenticity compared to what I've had in Japan. The steak was cooked well, but the portion could have been a bit larger for the price. Overall, a pleasant experience, but I expected more in terms of genuine Japanese flavors. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had the worst experience at Kume last week. The sushi tasted bland, and I had a piece of fish that didn’t seem fresh at all. It felt more like a tourist trap than an authentic sushi restaurant. Service was also slow, and our server seemed uninterested in making our experience enjoyable. I won't be returning anytime soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" Just came back from Kume, and I can't believe how delicious the sushi was! I tried the dragon roll and it was simply divine! The service was fast and attentive, and the atmosphere made us feel relaxed. However, seating can be tight during peak hours. I would definitely recommend this place for sushi! " (*Curated Review*)

" During our recent visit, I was impressed by the quality of the food at Kume. The portions were generous, and we loved the hibachi chef’s entertaining tricks. However, do be prepared for what seems to be a wait, especially if you’re dining in larger groups. Also, our server was a bit forgetful at times, but overall it was a good experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Kume for a romantic dinner last week, and while the food was decent, I felt the prices were a bit high for what we received. The rolls were average at best, and the service was okay but lacked warmth. The atmosphere was nice, though—it was cozy enough for a date night. Overall, it was a fine experience, but I doubt I'll return soon. " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I celebrated my birthday at Kume, and it was nothing short of spectacular! The hibachi chef was entertaining and engaging, keeping us laughing throughout the meal. We ordered a variety of sushi rolls, which were beautifully presented and tasted incredibly fresh. The rainbow roll was definitely a highlight! The atmosphere was lively yet comfortable, making it perfect for a celebration. The staff was kind and attentive without being intrusive. I highly recommend checking this place out for a fun dining experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Kume on a busy Friday night, and I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food! The rolls were fresh, and the hibachi experience was entertaining and fulfilling. However, I did notice the waitresses were a little overwhelmed, which caused some delays, but overall, we had a great time. " (*Curated Review*)
